''set in a bleak, moderately distant Near Future, Ruined Earth version of an Egypt devastated by climate change, in an Underground City called New Cairo. In the city - at least those portions of New Cairo outside the central Keep-like 'hives' where a corporate elite enjoy five-star lives - computer implants and nanotechnology-based bio-implants have transformed most of the population into fairly crude cyborgs, in order to keep them alive and working. A virus pandemic begins to shake this world apart. As with some earlier examples of Cyberpunk, The Hive Construct is ultimately shaped around issues of politics, with a specific (and timely) focus on an unbalanced disparity between the rich and the poor'' (John Clute/Encyclopedia of SF, 4th Edition). Fine copy in a fine dustjacket (as new).
